I believe deeply in the transformative power of a non-judgemental space where all of you is welcome. In the past, you may have made the wise choice to separate from who you were to create safety. In the present, this fragmentation can give rise to anxiety, depression, disordered eating, aggression/anger, and an overall feeling of being lost and purposeless—all contributing to difficulty in everyday life. I see my role as a compassionate companion, walking along side clients on their journey back home to their authentic self, by supporting their innate capacity for growth and change.
My curious and compassionate whole-person approach—primarily a blend of talk therapy, somatic techniques, spiritual inquiry, mindfulness, movement, humour, earth-based practices, trauma healing, and self-compassion—will support you to uproot and transform the underlying causes of suffering and struggle in your life.
With a background in yoga, conflict resolution/mediation, restorative justice, anger management, eating disorders, and holistic modalities, I bring a unique and ecclectic array of experiences and knowledge to the therapeutic relationship. The answers and wisdom you seek lie within you—with collaboration and care, we can dissolve barriers to reveal them.
